Let’s make it work for you
Overview
A strong product vision only creates value when it is translated into clear direction and meaningful outcomes. This one-hour webinar explores how product roadmaps and goals help teams turn vision into actionable plans while remaining flexible in the face of change.
Participants will learn what effective product roadmaps look like, how to set outcome-focused goals, and how roadmaps and goals work together to guide prioritisation, alignment, and delivery without becoming rigid plans.
